for_o if_o right_o understand_v 1._o it_o be_v a_o most_o happy_a revelation_n of_o god_n to_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n when_o he_o make_v know_v to_o they_o his_o will_n and_o direct_v they_o to_o write_v the_o scripture_n one_o of_o the_o book_n whereof_o bear_v the_o name_n of_o the_o revelation_n but_o i_o pray_v know_v too_o that_o these_o revelation_n be_v on_o purpose_n vouchsafe_v to_o give_v we_o a_o standard_n of_o scripture_n by_o which_o we_o may_v discover_v the_o imposture_n of_o those_o other_o feign_a revelation_n 2._o the_o scripture_n also_o call_v it_o a_o spirit_n of_o wisdom_n and_o revelation_n ephes_n 1._o 17_o 18._o that_o show_v and_o seal_n to_o we_o our_o interest_n in_o christ_n and_o the_o riches_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o inheritance_n of_o the_o

sometime_o possible_o there_o may_v be_v some_o more_o than_o ordinary_a intimation_n of_o god_n will_v to_o some_o of_o his_o servant_n for_o their_o person_n holy_a humble_a faithful_a and_o

upon_o other_o either_o to_o believe_v or_o do_v any_o thing_n above_o much_o less_o contrary_a to_o the_o scripture_n in_o all_o which_o our_o chief_a pretender_n to_o revelation_n be_v notorious_o
